Rural Fire Protection Assessment Evaluation

The next critical step in the process is for the client to request a Fire Protection Assessment Evaluation.
Conducting a Basic Rural Fire Risk Assessment for a community or business is the first step in determining the most appropriate program and equipment package best suited to the client's local needs and circumstances. In general terms, needs and circumstances relate to the community's economic situation, geography, population (demographics), infrastructure and building profiles.

The evaluation of the community and or business will be conducted by our fire service consultant with the accompaniment of the client's representative.

The Basic Rural Fire Risk Assessment process is a practical information gathering and analysis exercise intended to identify and create a Community Fire Risk Profile. The assessment report recommendations shall include the type of fire suppression system options, staffing requirements and training packages. Also, the profile will aid in determining the appropriate fire and life safety programs which can be implemented to promote public safety.
